A. Water Lines
Not Applicable
B. Sewer Lines
Not Applicable
C. Storm Drainage Lines and Appurtenances
1. The Developer and the City agree that all on -site and
off -site storm drainage improvements shall be completed by the
Developer in accordance with the approved plans prior to the
rd
issuance of more than 5 building permits. Completion of
improvements shall include the certification by a licensed
professional engineer that the drainage facilities which serve this
development have been constructed in conformance with said approved
plans. Said certification shall be submitted to the City at least
two weeks prior to the date of issuance for any certificate of
occupancy.
2. The Developer agrees to provide and maintain erosion
control improvements as shown on the approved utility plans to
stabilize all over -lot grading in and adjacent to this development.
The Developer shall also be required to post a security deposit in
the amount of $ 4,916.50 prior to beginning construction to
guarantee the proper installation and maintenance of the erosion
control measures shown on the approved Plan. Said security deposit
shall be made in accordance with the criteria set forth in the
Storm Drainage. Design Criteria and Construction Standards. In the
event that the City determines the need to utilize the security
deposit to install and/or maintain said erosion control measures,
the City may utilize said security in such manner as it deems
necessary without being restricted to any specific erosion control
measures identified in the approved erosion control plan.
3. The Developer and the City agree that the storm
drainage system for this development contains some features that
make it important to construct the facilities in accordance with
the plans and to ensure that the facilities are maintained and kept
operational throughout the buildout of this development. For this
reason, the following additional requirements shall be followed for
building on lots 1 through 10 and 13 through 21:
The drainage improvement system required to be constructed on
the above lots shall be completed in accordance with the
approved utility plans and said completion shall be certified
as being in accordance with said plans by a licensed
professional engineer. Said certification shall be received
prior by the City prior to the issuance of a building permit
for any of the above lots. A certification by such engineer
that the drainage system's function and adequacy to serve its
purpose has not been impaired by the construction and
landscaping on said lot shall be submitted to the City prior
to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for each of the
above lots.
In addition, the Developer shall be required to file a notice
with the Larimer County Clerk and Recorder describing the
landscaping and fencing restrictions that exist for the
drainage easements on each of said lots. Said notice shall
reference the location of the specific restrictions shown on
the plans and notes in the approved utility plans for this
5
development. Said notice shall be filed in a City approved
form prior to the sale of any lots affected by the
restrict__ons.
4. Lots 10 through 14 abut certain storm drainage
facilities and it is agreed that it is of the utmost importance
that no storm water from said facilities enters houses built on
said lots. In order to provide the assurance that houses built on
said lots are constructed at an elevation that said storm water
cannot enter, the approved utility plans contain specifications for
the minimum elevation for any opening to each such house. Prior to
the issuance of a certificate of occupancy for each of said lots
the Developer shall provide certification from a licensed
professional engineer that the lowest opening to any such house is
at or above the minimum elevations required on said utility plans.
5. The Developer and the City agree that the Developer
shall be responsible to obtain the City's approval of any changes
from the approved utility plans in grade elevations and/or storm
drainage facility configuration that occur as a result of the
construction of houses and/or development of lots, whether by the
Developer or other parties. The City reserves the right to
withhold the issuance of building permits and certificates of
occupancies until the City has approved such changes as being
acceptable for the safe and efficient delivery of storm drainage
water.
D. Streets.
1. Subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the City
agrees to reimburse the Developer for oversizing public street
improvements along Redwood Street for those portions of said street
abutting the Property as shown on the approved utility plans.
Reimbursement for Redwood Street shall be for oversizing the street
from residential standards to collector street standards. The City
shall make reimbursement to the Developer for the aforesaid
oversized street improvements in accordance with Section 24-121 of
the Code of the City. The Developer agrees and understands that
the City shall have no obligation to make reimbursement payments
for street oversizing unless funds for such payments shall first
have been budgeted and appropriated from the Street Oversizing Fund
by the City Council; and the Developer further understands that to
the extent that funds are not available for such reimbursement, the
City may not, in the absence of the Developer's agreement, require
the construction, at the Developer's expense, of any oversized
portion of streets not reasonably necessary to offset the traffic
impacts of the development. The Developer does hereby agree to
construct the aforesaid oversized street improvements with the
understanding that the Developer may not be fully reimbursed by the
City for the cost of such construction. The Developer further
agrees to accept payment in accordance with Section 24-121 (d) of
the Code of the City as full and final settlement and complete
11
accord and sa-tisfaction of all obligations of the City to make
reimbursements to the Developer for street oversizing expenses. It
is anticipated by the City that the City's reimbursement, in
accordance with Section 24-121 (d), would not be less than fifty
percent (500) of the Developer's actual expenses incurred and will
be calculated in accordance with the formula as set forth in
Section 24-12L (d).
2. It is understood that the streets to be constructed
as described in this Section II(D) are "city improvements" and, as
such, any contract for the construction of the same must be
executed in writing. If the cost of such improvements exceeds the
sum of Fifteen Thousand Dollars ($15,000), the contract for the
construction of the same must be submitted to a competitive bidding
process resulting in an award to the lowest responsible bidder; and
evidence must be submitted to the City prior to the commencement of
the work showing that the award was given to the lowest responsible
bidder. If the cost of such improvements exceeds fifty thousand
dollars ($50,000), the contract for the construction of the
improvements must be insured by a performance bond or other
equivalent security.
E. Ground Water
1. The Developer and the City recognize that the soils
report for this development identifies potential problems due to
the ground water level in the development. Accordingly, it is
agreed that the City shall not be responsible for any damages or
injuries sustained in the development as a result of ground water
seepage, whether resulting from ground water flooding, structural
damage, or other damage, unless such damages or injuries are
sustained as a result of the City's failure to properly maintain
its water, wastewater, and/or storm drainage facilities in the
development.
2. The soils report for this development identifies the
potential need for a subdrain system. If it is found that a
subdrain system is needed, the design for such a system must be
approved by the City prior to beginning construction of any such
subdrain system.
III. Miscellaneous
A. The Developer agrees to provide and install, at its
expense, adequate barricades, warning signs and similar safety
devices at all construction sites within the public right-of-way
and/or other areas as deemed necessary by the Director of
Engineering in accordance with the City's "Work Area Traffic
Control Handbook" and shall not remove said safety devices until
the construction has been completed and approved by the Director of
Engineering.

B. The Developer shall, at all times, keep the public right-
of-way free from accumulation of waste material or rubbish caused
by the Developer's operation; shall remove such rubbish no less
than weekly and; at the completion of the work, shall remove all
such waste materials, rubbish, tools, construction equipment,
machinery, and surplus materials from the public right-of-way. The
Developer further agrees to maintain the finished street surfaces
so that they are free from dirt caused by the Developer's
operation. Any excessive accumulation of dirt and/or construction
materials shall be considered sufficient cause for the City to
withhold building permits and/or certificates of occupancy until
the problem is corrected to the satisfaction of the Director of
Engineering. If the Developer fails to adequately clean such
streets within two (2) days after receipt of written notice, the
City may have the streets cleaned at the Developer's expense and
the Developer shall be responsible for prompt payment of all such
costs.
C. The Developer hereby agrees that it will require its
subcontractors, to cooperate with the City's construction inspectors
by ceasing operations when winds are of sufficient velocity to
create blowincl dust which, in the inspector's opinion, is hazardous
to the public health and welfare.
D. The Developer shall, pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, complete all improvements and perform all other
obligations required herein, as such improvements or obligations
may be shown on the original plat and related documents, or any
replat as subsequently filed by the Developer, and the City may
withhold such building permits and certificates of occupancy as it
deems necessary to ensure performance hereof.
E. Nothing herein contained shall be construed as a waiver of
any requirements of the City Code, and the Developer agrees to
comply with all requirements of the same.
F. In the event the City waives any breach of this Agreement,
no such waiver shall be held or construed to be a waiver of any
subsequent breach hereof.
G. Financial obligations of the City of Fort Collins payable
after the current fiscal year and/or not appropriated or budgeted
are contingent upon funds for that purpose being appropriated,
budgeted and otherwise made available.
H. This Agreement shall run with the Property and shall be
binding upon the parties hereto, their personal representatives,
heirs, successors, grantees and assigns. It is agreed that all
improvements required pursuant to this Agreement touch and concern
the Property regardless of whether such improvements are located on
the Property. Assignment of interest within the meaning of this
paragraph shall specifically include, but not be limited to, a
0
conveyance or assignment of any portion of the Developer's real or
proprietary interest in the Property, as well as any assignment of
the Developer's rights to develop the Property under the terms and
conditions of this Agreement.
I. In the event the Developer transfers title to the Property
and is thereby divested of all equitable and legal interest in the
Property, the City hereby agrees to release said Developer from
liability under this Agreement with respect to any breach of the
terms and conditions of this Agreement occurring after the date of
any such transfer of interest. In such event, the succeeding
property owner shall be bound by the terms of this Agreement.
J. Each and every term of this Agreement shall be deemed to
be a material element hereof. In the event that either party shall
fail to perform according to the terms of this Agreement, such
party may be declared in default. In the event that a party has
been declared in default hereof, such defaulting party shall be
given written notice specifying such default and shall be allowed
a period of five (5) days within which to cure said default. In
the event the default remains uncorrected, the party declaring
default may elect to: (a) terminate the Agreement and seek damages;
(b) Treat the Agreement as continuing and require specific
performance or; (c) avail itself of any other remedy at law or
equity.
K. In the event of the default of any of the provisions
hereof by either party which shall require the party not in default
to commence legal or equitable action against said defaulting
party, the defaulting party shall be liable to the non -defaulting
party for the non -defaulting party's reasonable attorney's fees and
costs incurred by reason of the default. Nothing herein shall be
construed to prevent or interfere with the City's rights and
remedies specified in Paragraph III.D of this Agreement.
